 Awsome October 3, 2008

I ordered this book because my wife was looking for it. I have to say that the meals in this book are really awsome.. being short for time, this book provides simple and delicious meals that can be prepared in 30 mins or less with house hold stapels..
I also ordered the "eating well for two cookbook" and that as well is a great addition for our recipie collection.
An excellent, healthy approach September 1, 2008

About half of this book discusses reasons for weight gain (both physical and psychological) and suggests exercises for working through your own thinking on the subject. The other half is the diet plan, itself, which includes meal plans (suggested, not required) along with some really good recipes. Many of the recipes are more like quick "stir together" ideas, great if you're pressed for time or just not into cooking at times. The one thing that doesn't work well for me is that the meal plans and many of the recipes result in unwieldy leftovers when trying to adapt them for one person (not so much the quantity of leftovers, but the need to use just a small amount of an ingredient that won't keep well until the rest is used up). I'm not downgrading the book for this, because it certainly doesn't claim to be a "diet for one," and the practical, useful information far outweighs this small issue.

I've been following this eating plan for a month now and am having a lot of personal success with it.
I would recommend this book and this diet for anyone who is interested in eating better and losing a few (or a lot) of pounds. As someone who loves to cook and to eat, I need a plan that allows for flexibility and doesn't restrict any foods. The book contains a lot of tips for making life style changes, and contains many healthy and flavorful recipes. My husband and two teenage children have also enjoyed the recipes, and have commented that it does not taste like "diet food."
Good luck!

Excellet tips on eating, cooking, and setting goals. Would definitely recommend it to anyone who does not want to take part in fad diets, but wants to get healthy and lose weight the right way.

I bought this book based on the Eating Well cook books, which are excellent. Every recipe I have tried in both books has been at least an 8 out of 10. They have tasty menus that watch your waistline, which is a good combination. This book addresses changes in how to eat, portion size, and common sense. I am looking forward to applying it to my menus after the holidays!
